GRCT's Breakfast for Breakfast
Fundraising for Garden Route Children's Trust
Story
Please support the work of the GRCT in helping us fund more than 8000 e’Pap meals for children each school day.
A donation of £20 will make a huge difference to the life of a child in South Africa.
£20 feeds one child an e’Pap breakfast for a whole school year!
So what is e'Pap?
e'Pap is a wholegrain maize and soya bean porridge style mix. Vitamins are added into the mixture in a form that the body can easily absorb. e’Pap contains 24 micronutrients and four macronutrients which maximise absorption and "bio-efficacy" in the human body. This means that e'Pap will be absorbed into the body more effectively.
Why do we choose to fund e'Pap?
e’Pap addresses the issue of "hidden hunger" and micronutrient deficiencies, which can compromise the immune system and interfere with focus and concentration at school.
Preparing e’Pap is also straightforward - it just needs to be mixed with clean water. This is an invaluable feature in the areas in which the feeding projects are based, as it allows it to be prepared even the most basic of settings.
Where do we fund e'Pap?
This year the GRCT continues to fund more than 8,000 e'Pap meals for children each school day, with the invaluable help of our 14 local partners. We work with local partners across South Africa to help alleviate poverty amongst children through the provision of food and education.
